About a week has passed since Charlie and Penny's post it surprise for Tori. That didn't stop them from bringing it up nearly every day, though. Each time one of them mentioned it, the other would burst into a fit of giggles, pointing at a very unamused Tori.

"Hey Dashie?"

"Yeah, Penny?"

"----- Post its."

Charlie bit her lip, her face turning a bright shade of red as she tried holding in her laughter. Tori was glaring at the both of them while she bit into her sandwich.

"We get it, guys. The post it thing was funny, but it's getting kind of old," she said after she swallowed what she was chewing, soon taking another bite. "We have more interesting things to talk about, right girls?"

As soon as those words came out of her mouth, all eyes were on Charlie, who managed to control her laughter. After she took a deep breath, she noticed that they were all staring at her with curious expressions. "What're you guys lookin' at?"

Rarity glanced at Tori before looking back at Charlie with raised brows. "So, darling. We've noticed that you've been rather.... friendly with Andrew."

"Yeah, he's my friend. Why wouldn't I be friendly?"

A light laugh escaped the fashionista's lips, clearly amused by her answer. "No, dear. By friendly I mean... friendly."

Friendly? Confusion filled the tomboy's face, and she furrowed a brow. Wasn't she supposed to be friendly with friends? "What is up with you guys?"

"Oh, nothing. We just kinda sorta noticed that you and Andrew.... seem like more than just friends," Tori answered casually, tapping her fingers on the table. "That is the case, right Dash?"

More than just friends? Wait... they can't possibly think.... "Me and Andrew are not dating! What even makes you think that?"

"Charlotte, do you really think that we haven't noticed? I've seen you two holding hands in the hallways."

She was completely flabbergasted. It was totally obvious that they were strictly just friends. They got the wrong impression! "Dude, that was because I was taking him to show Tori's car! Can't friends hold hands? In a totally not romantic way?"

With a sigh, Rarity shook her head, folding her hands in her lap. "They can. But I've seen the way you look at him, and the way he looks at you. Not to mention the fact that you're as red as a tomato right now, darling."

"I am not blushing! It's just... really hot in here!"

"Dashie, all the air conditioning is on."

"It's still pretty hot in here!"

"But-"

Charlie stood up, grabbing her lefttovers and leaving. "I gotta go. I'll see you guys later."

Andrew and Charlie? That was the most ridiculous idea ever. They were total opposites! Well, kinda. But the idea of them as a couple? That's never gonna happen.
